These two? A coward & a windsock came to the same conclusion on the same day, on their own.
Neither of them are capable of independent thought.
Has to be the new talking point.

(27,661 posts)The criminal code clarifies that incitement is not the same as simply advocating ideas or expressing beliefs in speech or writing. In order to qualify as incitement, the speech must advocate violence, the rightness of violence, or the right to commit acts of violence.

Justice matters.

(2,910 posts)a few open conflicts ala J6 to create martyrs like Babbit, then IRA-style guerilla war.
Once again, I hope I'm wrong. But we can't surrender to threats from nazis. Bullies tend to back off when confronted and/or outnumbered.

(2,910 posts)I shouldn't have said IRA: I should have used "The Troubles", because state and protestant violence were a major part. Don't want to dump it all on one side.

(3,505 posts)TFG called on all his followers to flood the Capital and a couple of thousand folks from across the whole country overpower a purposely depleted local police for a couple of hours. And when TFG's house got raided a couple of lone wolfs showed up and weren't even able to get in the building and wound up getting take care of by the local police.
It's all bluster from a loud minority of folks. Compare that with the folks who came out after George Floyd and the Women's marches and you'll see they ain't got what we got. Now if we can only get people to register to vote and show up every election.

(32,100 posts)I'm sure they're terrified not only of being exposed for their 1/6 involvement, but also of any kompromat Trump has on them becoming public. They know they can't condemn Trump, without him potentially blackmailing them. All they have left is threats.

(2,910 posts)it is about power and who holds it. They remember what Mao said about political power. Hell, Bannon calls himself a Leninist.

(37,144 posts)Just asking. Cause I cant figure out how a veteran senator like Lindsay Would not be in a position to have Donald arrested now, knowing what Lindsay knows. Gosh Lindsay come clean for us. Why are you acting like a rabid bitch on a leash? Could it be all the known knowns that you know? Just asking as a fellow Vet Lindsay.
